"Ours first." With this slogan of protectionist overtones, Vox has launched a campaign in which it urges citizens to "check the labels" of products to buy only those that have been manufactured or grown in Spain. This call "to support ours" also extends to the tourism sector, with an explicit appeal to enjoy summer vacations in the country, instead of going abroad.

"Spain will not get ahead with paguitas or ration cards," warned the national spokesman for Vox, Jorge Buxadé , who has justified this initiative as a responsible action as a consequence of the fact that they are an "openly patriotic" party and that it comes out "in defense of our workers "when the country is" on the verge of economic collapse ".

The political vice president of Vox has expressly called for the consumption of the product of Spanish origin, asking citizens to verify it through a review of the labels to find out "where it has been produced, manufactured or marketed."

This appeal to "small consumers" is also raised to "large companies", "so that they do not go to provide services to foreign companies", since there are service companies in the country "that do it with the same quality and with much more enthusiasm. "

"Desal competition" abroad

At a press conference after the Executive meeting, Buxadé has also focused on the conditions of entry of products arriving from abroad, denouncing that there is "unfair competition". Because the Spanish are obliged to follow a series of directives, while foreigners "break them". A circumstance that Vox usually points out is what happens in the field and why it competes in a situation of "inequality" with agricultural products of Moroccan or Latin American origin.

As for tourism, Vox has also encouraged effusively to stay in Spain during the holidays and help a sector that, as he has added, "is still suffering the irresponsibility of the Government with direct attacks on its activity" by the Minister of Consumer Affairs. Alberto Garzón.

Asked about the fact that hundreds of thousands of people work in Spain for foreign companies, Buxadé has defended that the campaign only seeks to promote the "national product" and that "in no way is another commercial action" against anyone, in reference to a boycott.

For Vox, one of the lessons of the coronavirus pandemic is the need to generate an "industrial rebirth" in Spain and thus avoid dependence on foreign powers. That, Buxadé has stressed, must be done by increasing the country's productive capacity and also recovering creative talent.

"Yesterday's demonstration forgot about the dead"

On the other hand, Vox has asked that the agglomerations that occurred yesterday in the Madrid and Barcelona protests against racism in the US be investigated after thousands of citizens breached the social distance and crowded by hundreds. And he has compared them in irresponsibility with what happened in the 8-M.

"For progressive thought, it seems that the pandemic has ended. It started with the image of March 8 with an imaginary enemy and ends yesterday with other demonstrations against another imaginary enemy, such as institutionalized racism," he said.

Buxadé has accused the attendees of "forgetting the more than 40,000 dead" by the coronavirus and has branded these concentrations as "illegal" because they exceeded the authorization of the Government Delegation. In the case of Madrid, he has assured that the permit was only for 200 people and in front of the US Embassy. However, he has criticized that what happened was "an illegal walk through the streets" of the capital, in breach of social distancing, which ended up in Puerta del Sol with thousands of people.

The Vox spokesman has mourned the death of George Floyd but has pointed out that this protest is part of an ideological and global battle from the left that he has called the "progressive spring". In it, Vox assures that it will be with "freedom, property and social order". "We are not going to kneel. In front of the police and the pijiprogre with our faces covered, we are always going to be with the police," he said.
